I’ve had this bug with other programs. If you run
echo $GTK_MODULESyou can see the libcanberra is there. By runningunset GTK_MODULESyou can remove it, and all applications that reported the error work fine. You can add this command to your~/.bash_profileor the Zsh equivalent, whatever you use. It worked for me with other stuff, but I have never used this program before.Regarding this issue. The regular version of Firefox runs without issues, but the snap version (/snap/bin/firefox) produces the following error:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module “canberra-gtk-module”
Fixed this bug for me on Manjaro, but I was launching google-play-music-desktop-player, not super-productivity
sudo snap install coreI uploaded a version to the AUR. See if that works for you.
I am not a fan of snap so I never bothered to try it. First I tried compiling from source where I got ‘cannot find module …dialog’ so instead I used the deb which works fine.
The AUR is the Arch User Repository, basically a repo where any one is allowed to upload packages.
You can find the package here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/superproductivity/
